Abstract:
:I have reported three case of paraurethral cysts in female neonates. These are uncommon lesions, and urologic evaluation is required to differentiate them from ectopic ureteroceles, urethral diverticula, or paraurethral tumors. Histologic appearance of the cyst epithelium identifies the embryologic origin. The cysts either rupture spontaneously or require simple marsupialization.
